<p> Fine Woodworking did a test a few years ago--it's performance was identical with freshly prepared HHG. Of course, there are some who find it hard to believe that it could be just as good and not as stressful. </p>
<p>You can get it direct from the maker.</p>

<p>I came across quite a few good posting about this particular brand of liquid HG. I still worry about the addition of urea and it's longevity. I wasn't aware of it but there is mention in the thread from 2012 and other places of using salt to modify the working time for HHG. The biggest problem I have with this sort of "endorsement" is that there is very little long term experience presented. Most of what I've seen is a few years at best AND most of it is in conjunction with furniture and veneer work. While I think that furniture references certainly add support to the glue working under stressed conditions, the veneer work is hardly something to bolster my confidence about strength down the road. </p>
